I’m still working through the Watercolor Trip to Italy book, but decided to take a break from that this week and work on a couple more watercolors from photos I took out of my Mom’s old calendars.
There are some watercolor artists who can make their paintings so realistic that it’s like looking at a photo. I have freed myself from that particular goal. I’m perfectly content for you to know that you’re looking at a watercolor rendition of something in the real world.
Those two photos have been sitting out on my work table for about 3 months so I’m glad I finally got to them. I much prefer painting plants and birds to trying to paint people. It’s all good practice for me. I painted these into a watercolor journal that I bought last year. I thought I would use it a lot more than I have.
Time to go! Thanks for joining me.
I’ll probably delete this at the right time in the right place with the right tools.
